Gotcha Day


Today, we are celebrating “Gotcha Day”,  the date we met our daughter Allie in China–twenty-one years ago. As best we can recall, these photos were taken in the Lake Tahoe area when she was still young enough to be carried in the backpack. 


We also celebrated Justin’s 19th birthday on Friday.  Allie was in town.  She will graduate from college in December and has a paid internship with a Fortune 500 company this summer. Justin’s plan for the summer is to continue his education at UW-Whitewater.  Julia’s dad and step-mom have moved into a nice accessible apartment near Madison.  We are starting the process to get their house ready for sale.  Allie received some nice camping equipment in the emptying out process.
